Cub survival before (den emergence to mid-May), during (mid-May to mid-July), and after the mating season (mid-July to November) in brown bears in Sweden. Each line represents a litter. 'FemaleID' is the ID of the mother of the litter. Age indicates the age (years) of the mother. Status is the parity of the mother (primiparous or multiparous). Distance to the closest male killed is to the closest registered adult male killed within the 1.5 previous years. Timelag is whether the closest male was killed 0.5 or 1.5 years before the litter was born. The number of male shot are the number of registered adult male killed within the previous 1.5 years in a radius of 25km of a litter or between a radius of 25 to 80km of a litter. 'Population_density' is an index that approximate the number of bears within 1000 km² around the home range center of a litter. 'Food_index' is an index of the general food condition of the study population for each year.
